Ruby Daley tell me about your nature, maybe I've been getting you wrong
The intention of my body of work was to invite the audience to love the unloved. It is a close study of types of life that are often misunderstood, and represents a counter argument to the categorisation of these aspects of the natural world as ‘insignificant’ and ‘unfavoured’. I was inspired by the artist Annette Messager whose work examines the interplay between the human and the monstrous.
